There are several markers that include a description of the survey marker as "Parcel 73". If you have located a previously waymarked survey marker with the markings "Parcel 73", "139.42", and "NE CORNER W", you need only turn away from the fence, and walk again as far from the fence as you were previously standing to find this one. It contains no station designation (the numbers). In addition to "Parcel 73", this one reads "N. MIDDLE COR.".
This appears to be cross-listed under US Benchmarks: (
